There are only 8 bolted mounts, the other 4 are just spacers to support the weight and keep the floor from sinking. Most people just glue the lift blocks on top of thoes locations temporarily till your done, then you can tack weld the block to the frame if you want.

   Ok then wich ones are the mounted bolts.I see 3 in the front, 2 in the back and 3 on each side between the 2 wheels.Do you mean that if I unscrew the 3 in the front and the two in the back and begin to lift the truck it will come apart? Thanks for the help

The body mounts are located:

Two in the front = One on each side under the headlights (behind the grill/bumper)

Two under the front floorboards = One on each side (look where the arm comes out from the frame on each side)

Two under the rear seat = One on each side (again, look at where the arm comes out from the frame on each side)

Two in the back = One on each side behind the back bumper/below the back door

The spacers are located:

One on each side between the front floorboard and rear seat body mounts - this spacer is between the frame and body.

One on each side at the top of the frame above the rear wheels - next to the gas tank. Again, this spacer is between the frame and body.

This all equals = 12 spacers/mounts.

There's a couple broken links there (I need to go through my site) but the photos might help.
